There is no way your first paragraph can be accurate as well. If you are on the phone how do you know you have never cut someone off? I have had lots of distracted drivers violate my right of way and drive on blissfully unaware or simply not caring.
The saddest part of your post is the attitude that I can do it, its the others that are the problem. Distracted driving is against the law, period! But then those pesky laws are just for other people.... right?
